Hi Linda.
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply in such detail.
Yes the original IT201 was accepted and processed. I know this because I had an amount due and they collected it from my bank. Amazing how fast they are to draw the debit compared with the slowness in processing a refund.. 🙂
Having no other option I printed and mailed my IT201X. My status on-lime shows as accepted and processed but I'm fairly sure that refers to the original filing not yet the updated version. In that version I am due a refund plus a refund of the incorrect debit. I'll just ave to sit tight a few more days to see what happens.
My purpose in writing in the first place was to get some feed back from Intuit as its, to my mind, a software bug, rather than a taxation issue. Clearly since the amendment process created a IT201X it must have been based on an original IT201; so it must be wrong when it comes to filing time to prohibit me from filing the amendment. The program should, I think, provide an "Are you sure" warning message and an option to override whatever flag in the system is preventing filing.
I'm sure NYS has processes to reject and return the filing if they *think* it's in error.
Thanks anyway..
Best Derek ...
